The 90s commodified a lot of 'lifestyles (remember heroin chic about the same time as lesbian chic?) in an effort by corporations to make people think of themselves as customers and customers as tyrants. The trick is that consumers have choice, but no rights, once you've reduced (there i said it) everyone to a customer you can control their choices, even narrow them down to none at all, by which time they might hopefully have forgotten about the idea of rights. We, all of us, really owe all these noisy weirdos agitating for rights.

[@t.r.babbitt8164]

@@Young.Supernovas I had replied to you last week, but I do not see my reply here. I hope I can get out what I had written. My comment about "rights being implicit to exchange value" was to suggest that people who do not identify as queer, the non-queer, or cisgender have an almost automatic or even subconscious, one could say intrapersonal rhetorical, recognition that marketability and rights go hand in hand. One may sell their labor on a flat market when one has the rights to do so. If transgender or queer identities are present within the market, and the market is flat, evenly-distributed, then transgender and queer identities must have the same rights as cisgender or non-queer. The argument would be extrapolated to include all rights enjoyed by cisgender or non-queer. This is a neoliberal perspective. The idea beginning that if rights are extended, then that extension will offer more labor. However, I think Olly was pointing to the expropriation of fetishes within the economy. There is much more to this, but I hope I got my point across.

I was a Lesbian Avenger in 1994!! (My name is celeste, not Tim.) I was 14, and I saw a flyer for them on a telephone poll in New Paltz, New York that read "Lesbian Avengers, We Recruit!" with a picture of a secretarial woman holding a bomb. That flyer was almost glowing, pulling me towards it by my pupils, with entire choirs of holy angels singing from heaven! There was a telephone number printed a bunch of times on little slivers on the bottom and I took one. I can;'t believe I actually called it, but I did, and suddenly, I was IN! I was the most intimidated I have ever been, sooo starstruck by those people for every single second I spent in their company haha. They were so enigmatic and excited and hilarious - I think it was the first time I really saw rage and joy expressed simultaneously by a single person as power. I understood so very little of what anyone was talking about at the time that I couldn't tell you now at all, and I was excruciatingly shy, but they we're endlessly kind to me. My dad drove me to and fro the meetings haha. Even though my experience of and thinking around gender and sexuality has evolved seemingly endlessly since then, I think the Lesbian Avengers is partially why there'll always be a little militant lesbian inside me who will never die (not do I want er to, she's scrappy and punk rock) Anyway, its so wonderful to see the Lesbian Avengers being talked about so many years later, I feel like I never hear them mentioned, and you reminded me that we must not lose them! We have to keep the radical lesbians, the Lesbian Avengers and Fierce Pussy, etc, alive in our collective queer memories! Complicated aspects of them and all.

As a bi trans woman on the younger side of the divide; it's very validating to hear someone big and popular acknowledge that people in my generation can have good reasons for disliking the label of queer. I've faced an extraordinary amount of pushback for asking that people refrain from using it to refer to me (to the point of being called a TERF which is, well, patently ridiculous) because it was used as a slur against me, and still sometimes is. I get why people like to use it, even those who are reclaiming it after it was used against them. And I'm glad it empowers them (and you) and helps them feel good about their identity! I don't fight people who want to call themselves queer even though it can make me uncomfortable (and I sure as fucking hell don't like hearing conservatives call anyone queer under the auspices of fitting the lingo), but it really means a lot to hear it. Serious time over-you were having a pretty good time with the subtitles on this one, eh?

[@BothHands1]

that's totally understandable. i've grown to like the word over time, though it was used quite aggressively against me when i was younger. but i guess because i'm in a position now where i can be "cishet passing" and haven't been shamed for who i am in many years, at least not directly. i think as time goes on and those hard times get further behind you, those slurs will bother you less and less. best of luck 💕💕

[@PhosphorAlchemist]

I use the term as a "fuck you, I'm living" way of coping with a ton of trauma. And because the multiple meanings mean I can both specifically and generally represent more of myself in a single word. But I definitely try to be respectful of folks who I know have ongoing trauma associations with the word. Thank you for sharing.

[@ColastiaThunderfuck]

THANK YOU I feel exactly the same way, I’ve never had a more aggressive pushback than when I asked other lgbt people to not call me a slur

[@justapersonexistinghere2507]

I like the label queer, for myself. My best friend likes it for themself, so we use it to describe eachother. My boyfriend (we're gay and trans) doesn't like it, so I don't use it around him, and I definitely don't use it to describe him. I think people need to remember that it's other people's decision about whether or not they want to reclaim certain words, and that it's important not to use slurs (even if they are mostly reclaimed) to describe other people without being sure it's ok for those people. Like I would hate it if someone used the T slur to describe me, but I won't stop someone else from using it to describe themselves if they're trans too.

[@WarMomPT]

this this this. I especially hate it when older people claim that it was only used as a slur in the past. Very lucky duck they are to have lived in a part of the world where that was true, and I must have just hallucinated my teenage years nary a decade ago when that was weaponised against me.

Congrats Abigail, this is officially my favorite video on all of youtube. Back in 2016 I came out to my friends and family as bisexual. Privately, I was already beginning to understand that I'm actually trans non-binary, but I wasn't prepared for all the "what does that mean???" questions that would inevitably come with that conversation - even with my incredibly supportive and progressive family. A couple years later, I did eventually come out as non-binary as well, and when I first saw this video I was struck by how much it hit home as a trans person, even though you were only coming out as bi. I'll admit, I did wonder if you were going to come out as trans, and there was the slightest bit of disappointment that you didn't. But just like me, you needed time to come out on your own terms and I'm so proud of you for doing so. And I'm thankful for the glimpses into your experience that you did share. It hits even closer to home now. Sorry for the novel - just wanted to share how much this video means to me. Keep being the absolute legend that you are, Abigail 💜
